Daniel Storin	Sunday 08 May 2005 12:32:04 pm During the installation I received this message: "The database cannot be used, it uses the character set <b>koi8r</b> which is different from the requested charset <b>koi8-r</b>." I think this is same encoding, but the names are different. How can I fix it? Thanks, and excuse me for my English.

Daniel Storin	Monday 09 May 2005 5:59:35 am I have use eZ publish installer for Windows 9x/NT/2000/XP - eZ publish 3.5.2 MySQL version 4.1.7-nt I've chosen installation of Russian as primary language, and got error message : "The database cannot be used, it uses the character set iso-8859-1 which is different from the requested charset koi8-r." Then I changed the encoding of MySQL to the koi8r by using following commands: alter database blog alter character set koi8r; alter database blog collate koi8r_general_ci; And then I got the message that I posted before. Thanks!

Jan Borsodi	Monday 09 May 2005 7:12:29 am Regarding: <i>"The database cannot be used, it uses the character set iso-8859-1 which is different from the requested charset koi8-r."\|</i> This happens because eZ publish doesn't recognize the <i>koi8r</i> alias and thus sees the two as different charset. I'll make sure this is recognised for the next eZ publish releases. If you want to get it work ASAP you can edit <i>lib/ezi18n/classes/ezcharsetinfo.php</i> and add: 'koi8r' => 'koi8-r', right after the existing entry: 'koi-8-r' => 'koi8-r', I've also made a bug report on this issue: http://ez.no/bugs/view/6608 -- Amos Documentation: http://ez.no/ez_publish/documentation FAQ: http://ez.no/ez_publish/documentation/faq

You can fix this by running: alter database xyz character set latin1; Where <i>xyz</i> is the name of your database. -- Amos Documentation: http://ez.no/ez_publish/documentation FAQ: http://ez.no/ez_publish/documentation/faq
